Birthday follow-up

The day after my birthday I went to see my grandparents and my father had the great idea to stop out at Cushman's Greenhouse on the way back so that I could pick out some plants. (My balcony was bare.)


Dad was at work, but Mom and I picked up some herbs and some sort of multi-colored leafy decorative plants, both of which he planted for me when we got home. (He also gave me a couple of cherry tomato plants he'd been growing from seeds inside the house all spring.) This is one of the best, useful birthday presents I've gotten in a long time. (Ok, I also got a gift certificate from Mom to the salon I go to for a haircut. That was pretty nice too. She and Dad both did well.)


After that, mom and dad took Jeff and I out for Laotian for a day-after-my-birthday dinner.

Unrelated to birthday stuff, I saw this huge full rainbow last night shortly before sunset.
